If you are organizing an event, one of the first decision that is required is the choice of venue. No matter what type of event you are planning, you need to find a convenient, accessible location which offers the space and facilities you need. Choosing the right venue could mean the difference between guests showing up in droves- or an empty house. Here are ten fundamental questions you should ask.

Are there days of the week or time of the year that cost less than others?

What is included in the venue rental?

How many hours do you offer for set-up and break down?

Do you have a list of preferred suppliers/vendors?

Are there any decoration restrictions or limitations?

Is guest parking available? If so, is it free?

Do you have a liquor license and have staff members that are authorized to serve alcoholic beverages??

Does your venue offer in-house catering?

What kind of deposits are required and is there a payment scheduling option available?

10. Are there additional costs like cleaning fees, overtime charges, service charge, or gratuity?

Events are all about the experience, and the venue you choose can guarantee your event stands out from the others. Conference centers, exhibition halls, hotel ballrooms and similar facilities, while popular in choice, don’t create a lasting impression on attendees. Unique event venues such as a brewery, art museum, movie theater, golf club or sports facility can inspire and invigorate guests after a day trapped in the office or m

eetings.

Hosting a chain of small events across multiple, strategic sites is a great way to extend your event’s brand, create deeper connections in local communities, and expand into new markets. Imagine your attendees catching the keynote address at a brewery in the morning, attend breakout sessions in the open air tents covering the parking lot next door, spend the afternoon on the golf course and wrap up the evening networking at a cocktail party on a rooftop a few blocks away. Who needs a convention center?

“Nontraditional venues help deepen you attendee’s connection with the event, or the emotion you are trying to evoke,” says Kristina Skinner of Peerspace. “The right space can bring everyone together or break them into close-knit groups. It can elevate the event or help people feel at home.”

When beginning a new project you always want to start with looking at what you want to achieve. What are your goals for the event you are planning? A specific monetary goal in mind will help determine the success of your event and ways to improve in the future. You’ll also want to look at how the event ties into your larger fundraising strategy as a whole. Are you looking to attract new donors or reward existing donors? Is the main focus to gain publicity for your cause? What segment of your charity’s mission are you looking to reflect? With your specific goals in mind you can then begin to articulate a vision for your fundraising event.

Choose a Type of Event

To choose among the numerous types of events to host, your initial question should be, “What type of event will encourage donors to attend?” Along with your fundraising goal, this question will create the nature and scope of your event. Are you looking to host a high-end event for major donors? A traditional gala or formal dinner would be the way to go. Focusing on publicity? Try a large event open to the public like a walk-a-thon. Host a golf outing if you are looking to showcase what your charity has accomplished over the year as well as have some networking time with guests.

Build a Budget

With your main goal to raise funds for your non-profit, don’t forget that you will have to invest some of your own capital to make the event happen. Each event is different; a few ideas of typical expenditures include event space/venue, catering/refreshments, entertainment, invitations, event planning or auction software, promotional items. Create an excel sheet to keep track of your budget. You’ll also want to add a category for contingency funds for unexpected items. This is the time to begin looking for potential sponsors for your event. If you can find supporters or local businesses to help defray some of your event costs you’ll not only build a lasting community relationship, but also reduce some of your event expenses.

Create a Leadership Team

Now that you have an understanding of what you’ll be doing, it’s time to focus on who will be in charge of the various logistical components. For smaller events it may only be a simple team to coordinate the different pieces. For larger events you may have multiple committees or task groups with staff and volunteers reporting to them to get everything done. Think about all the facets of the event and assign a person or group of people in charge of each. Examples of these would be: sponsorships, marketing and promotions, ticket sales/registration, volunteer management, venue set-up and clean-up, auction item procurement, event follow-up. Communication is key, so make sure everyone knows their role and specific tasks to ensure a successful event.

Set a Date and Time for Event

The perfect date would be one that is convenient for donors and also provides plenty of time for planning and securing RSVPs. If you’re hosting an annual event try to keep the timing consistent year to year so that donors know when to generally expect it. Check your date against a local events calendar to ensure your guests won’t have conflicts with other large events like sports games or local festivals. Weekends are typically the most popular time, but can also be the most expensive. By choosing a Friday night, weekday, or fall/winter date which is off-season for your venue/catering/entertainment you can save money on some of your costlier budgetary expenses.

Market your Fundraising Event

The details of your event are coming together, and now it’s time to get the word out. Try a variety of avenues from traditional mailings to free online community calendar postings. Make sure that your event is prominent on your charity’s website and is shared throughout your social media platforms. The most effective marketing plan includes multiple channels both online and offline.

Start Selling Tickets to your Event

How will you handle ticket sales and registration for your event? Will you charge a flat price or offer different packages? Should you offer a VIP ticket option or offer discounts to groups or families? A popular option is to offer a discount to those who purchase early by a specific date. Will you offer electronic tickets, physical tickets or both? Will tickets only be available for purchase on your website or through an event management platform like Eventbrite or Waddle? Additionally, you’ll want to provide donation options for those who want to contribute but are unable to attend the event and manage attendee and donor information.

Preparations for the Big Day

In the final weeks leading up to your event make sure that you have confirmed all details (such as set up, arrival time, parking) with your vendors especially the catering and entertainment. Schedule and organize your volunteers for the event. The day of you’ll have last minute details such as decorating the venue, displaying auction items and setting up a registration table.

Enjoy the Event

Don’t forget to have fun! Your supporters will be able to tell if you or your staff is stressed out or exhausted. Show your donors how excited you are to have put together such an awesome event and how grateful you are for their attendance. Create a hashtag to make social engagement easy to track. Consider a live stream of the event on social media to include those guest who couldn’t make it. Take time to engage with your guests and make sure they are enjoying the event.

Follow Up

The event may be over, but your work isn’t done yet! Follow up and thank your attendees for their support. Write thank you letters to everyone involved in your event including: all guests, sponsors, volunteers and vendors. Let them know the amount of money that was raised as well as how it will benefit your charity. Be as detailed as possible. Solicit feedback to make your next event even better!

Forming a relationship, even a business relationship, takes time. Loyalty goes a long way toward maintaining trust and communication with potential donors or volunteers and is an essential ingredient in the recipe for fundraising success. Networking serves a vital purpose in the promotion and growth of your charity. You should use your time at the golf course to develop connections, and thank your current donors. A chance to speak with donors, colleagues, and beneficiaries within your community, in a beautiful golf course atmosphere.

I recommend that the host of the Charity Golf Outing does not play in the event. Once play has started, the host can take a cart around the course and see each golfing group, providing an excellent opportunity to spend quality time and build better relationships with current donors. Your guests will appreciate that the boss took time out of their day to thank them for their involvement. Other members of the staff can ride along with the beverage cart or set-up on a hole. These small meet and greet scenarios allow the staff members to build or increase their levels of relationships with the donors. Both of these provide time to be a gracious host.

Most golf courses (including Purgatory) will give you additional rounds of golf that you can use for a preview before your outing or at your convenience after the event; this is a great time to spend getting face time with large donors.

Remember that more often than not, people make investments in people. The more involvement guests have with your organization’s events, the more they will support your cause.

There are many reasons why so many charitable organizations host golf outings. But, the main reason is that it is a tried and true formula to raise funds. If done correctly, Golf Outings can raise $5,000, $10,000, $20,000 or even $100,000 or more for your charity

Here are four fantastic reasons to consider hosting a golf event.

Numerous ways to drive revenues

Golfer/team fees

Dinner only fee for non-golfers

Sponsorship fees

On Course Contests

Banquet Events

Organizations Merchandise Sales

Donations

The above list are just a few suggestions; your organization can use as many of them as you see fit. Feel free to institute other revenue-generating ideas, to customize your event.

Perfect setting to showcase the Charity.

What an excellent opportunity to tell your story, show the successes from the past year. After your guests have had a fantastic day on the course, you have the opportunity to present awards to large donors, valuable team members and other prestigious awards. Invite guests that are directly impacted by your organization’s work and let them thank the donors. Present future goals and the fundraising levels needed to achieve those goals. One of the future goals is to do business with the outing participants after the event. The more “buy-in” donors have into the organization, the more they will give. A Golf Outing works very well in most Charitable Organizations Social Marketing programs. What a great way to build loyalty with organic social posts. Golf Outings are also excellent ways to generate media exposure.

It’s a Great Chance for You to Have Personal Contact with Donors

During banquets or gala fundraising events the host of the activities very seldom has a conversation with each donor. Your duties are to be present at the dinner and meet a few of the more significant donors at the cocktail party. Golf Outings usually take six-plus hours from registration to the banquet. Thus providing opportunities to thank all donors and make personal connections with each of the guests.

Once play has started, the host can take a cart and see each group, providing an excellent opportunity to spend quality time and build better relationships with current donors. Other members of the staff can ride along with the beverage cart or set-up on a hole. Both of these provide time to be a gracious host.

Donors see value in Golf Outings

Golfing is a chance to get out of the office for a day, enjoy the weather and meet new people. Many of your guests will see the day as a place to relax and feel great about their contributions to your charity. Others will use the day to invite business guests and take their interaction into a different space. A few will be interested in the competition and prizes.

If you have a cause that you hold near and dear to your heart, you should consider hosting a golf tournament to fundraise and foster involvement in your organization.

We believe that life is too short to play ordinary golf courses and that golf outings should be a memorable event. We can customize the golf outing based on your needs and desires; the course can be set-up for the enjoyment of all players. Golf outings deserve excellent playing conditions, fantastic ambiance and enjoyable experience that will keep your guests reminiscing about their wonderful experience
